F(x)=2^x^-1 =
f(x) = 2^(1/x)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Make an x-y chart, from -2 to 2 and plot
OpenStudy (anonymous):
*-1 to 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Well te part i dont get is when you get negative exponents .i have to give atleast 5 points on the graph
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2^-1 = (1/2)

The number (2/1) is flipped to (1/2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So. Put it under 1 and then solve he exponent?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, you want to solve for y. Lets make x=-1
y=2^(1/(-1))
OpenStudy (anonymous):
when x=-1, y=(1/2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
(1/-1) = -1.
2^-1 = y = (1/2)

Now make x=0
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I got1/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Wha?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2^(1/0) =2^infinity = undefined
OpenStudy (anonymous):
you cannot divide by 0

2^(1/1) = 2^1 = 2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
So we got (-1,0.5) and (1,2)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
If i put 1 in the equation, i get 2^0 whic is 1
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No, 2^(1/x).
(1/1) = 1 ; 2^1 =2

Thin makes nonsense
OpenStudy (anonymous):
No sense
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Are you sure you typed the equation correctly?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Please go slow
OpenStudy (anonymous):
It's not 2^(x-1) is it?

x^(-1) can be written as 1/x
